Wow. This sounds great. I am all about organic produce, and I just absolutely LOVE open air markets. I wonder though...there seems to be a lot of emphasis on organic produce, and I believe that eating wild game also is a valuable part of a healthy diet (fish included). Is hunting pretty much "free range" in Spain as well? How do people get their meat?
